Taehyung was feeling stressed, very stressed. It was still the beginning of his final year in high school and he had no idea what college he was going to. He sat in his bedroom editing his short story literature assignment.

He didn't even know what he wanted to become. He sighed looking at the clock for the millionth time. He texted Jungkook. Even before Jungkook said he could come over he was already out the door.

Taehyung walked through the cold winter night in his tracksuit bottoms and a hoodie. He took his phone out and put his headphones in. Since he quit partying this became his comfort.

A stroll at night when no one was around and the music that helped comfort him even more. There was something about the music he listened to that just helped him power through.

The songs that were so beautifully created with the thought of singers fans and spreading a positive message. It was that kind of music that made him happy or sad, it just made him feel all kinds of emotions.

He decided to take a detour and walk through the lit up but seemingly abandoned city. He walked into a twenty four hour convince store.

He looked through the drinks section. He picked out a bottle of ginger ale, and he remembered Jungkook like strawberry lemonade so he bought him one. He paid for it.

"You should probably get an umbrella it's going to rain tonight"

Taehyung didn't even hear what the cashier said he was so lost in thought. He took the bag and smiled thanking the cashier, before leaving.

It was times like this he wanted to talk to Yoongi hyung. He would always give the best advice and reassure him. He sighed.

It suddenly started pouring. Well he was warned but y'know the lost in thought bullshit that doesn't let you hear things. He groaned he was ready to just scream his frustration out.

"You can leave now," Jungkook sighed at this persistent bastard.

"Why don't we just finish this shitty project now rather than drag it out?"

"Because it's late, and I have someone coming over,"

Wootak got up and walked over to Jungkook pushing him with his index finger.

"Listen here you disgusting faggot, my project is more important then you and your boyfriend's fuck time. I'm sure you can hold taking it up the ass for another hour or two."

Jungkook grabbed Wootak's hand and pulled him closer blowing air in his face. Wootak blushed and Jungkook released his grip on wootak's arm. But they stayed at the same distance.

They heard a door open, "hey kookie can I have a towel I'm soaking wet."

Jungkook moved away from Wootak to a cupboard and took out a towel.

"You can come in, I'll just dry the floor later,"

"Nah it's okay."

Wootak started packing his things. Jungkook walked over to Taehyung and put the towel over his head drying it for him. Taehyung grinned at him.

"You idiot, why didn't you bring an umbrella?"

"Well it wasn't raining when I left, then I stopped by a shop to buy you some strawberry lemonade, and then when I left it started raining."

Taehyung grabbed Jungkook's waist and pulled him closer. Wootak glaring at them.

"Hey your wet, later."

Taehyung pouted.

"Alright Imma' jump in the shower, can I have some spare clothes?" He handed the bag to Jungkook.

"Just shower."

Taehyung went to the bathroom not even noticing Wootak was there.

"So you going to ignore me now?"

Taehyung turned around and saw Wootak. He was so tired he didn't even notice him not to mention he the bathrooms in the other direction to where Wootak was.

"Well I-I just didn't see you, but if you want to call it ignoring them sure."

Wootak scoffed, "Well any way how're you?" Taehyung decidedly to be friendly, considering he's an old friend.

"Like you care." Well if you're going to be an ass I should be too.

"Your right I don't care, so anyway if your done with your project you can leave."

"Sure have fun with your new boy toy," he muttered Jungkook furrowed his eyebrows.

Taehyung went to the bathroom and really didn't feel like showering so he just stripped off his clothes and dried his body. Once he heard the lock of the front door, he left the bathroom in nothing but a towel.

"You didn't shower?" Jungkook asked turning around.

Once he caught eye with Taehyung's almost nude body, he couldn't help but look him up and down. He met eyes with Taehyung, then Taehyung winked at him. Jungkook blushed,

"Nah I don't feel like having one."

Jungkook threw Taehyung some gym shorts, "you sleep shirtless anyway."

Jungkook also got changed, putting on some short shorts, with an oversize shirt. Jungkook walked closer to Taehyung putting his hand at Taehyung's neck.

Taehyung put his hands on Jungkook's waist this was a new type of comfort — looking at Jungkook. Jungkook moves his hands to Taehyung's face rubbing under his eyes with his thumb.

"You look tired."

"I'm just stressed, the usual university, future, dreams. The same as everyone."

Jungkook sighed, "even if other people have the same problems as you doesn't make yours any less significant."

"Yeah you're right, but I feel like I'm just overreacting sometimes."

"Do you have a dream?" Jungkook asked no breaking contact eye contact.

Taehyung let go of Jungkook's waist, pulling his hand instead. He led Jungkook to the bed and the just laid down side by side, holding each others hands. Jungkook turned around to face Taehyung, fingers still interlocked. Taehyung did the same, fingers still interlocked.

"Yeah, I have a dream... I want to become a writer."

"Do you have a dream?"

Th rain outside only got heavier. They turned the lights off, leaving only the bedside lamp on. Jungkook stared at Taehyung's beautiful face in the reddish light. They heard thunder.

"I don't know what I want to be, I'm still discovering who I am as a person."

"I think you never stop learning about yourself as person.... Cause' as humans we always change, so you never really know who you are as a person. And if you ever do then you'll feel forced to always act or be like that. But if you let yourself grow and change then you'll never have to discover yourself as a person. Y'know what I mean? I'll give you an example, when I was discovering my...sexuality, I just...used boys all the time dating them d-dumping them just to get the experience. If I was...let's say trying to discover who I am I would feel as though I always had to use boys, because that's who I am, when I got older... I just had one night stands so we used each other rather than one way usage."

Jungkook nodded.

"Anyway, it's okay to not have a dream,... I learned that from the friend that moved here with me. He's much better at giving advice then me." Taehyung chuckled

Jungkook pouted moving into Taehyung's arms "l like your advice, it seems like you actually care y'know, when it's other people they're just trying to sound cool. It sounds like advice you'd give yourself, because-because y'know know wants to screw themselves over."

Taehyung pulled him closer the sound of thunder making both of them jump closer.
